Contemporary Readings in Social Problems allows undergraduate students to read about the major topics in social problems in the words of the original authors. This reader includes a topic guide to help the instructor better integrate the material into their course and well-crafted section openers place each article in context for the student. This series of readings has been vetted by an Advisory Board of social problems instructors to ensure quality. A new series of readings, this unique and innovative book offer a tremendous amount of value for an instructor looking to bring real-world examples into the social problems course. The readings have been selected from numerous well respected sociology journals and they have been edited to make them more "user friendly" for the undergraduate student. Key Features Focuses on teaching both theory as well as applications: Students learn what it is like to be a sociologist and find out what active sociologists actually do for a living when they read these articles. Includes edited articles to make them accessible to undergraduate students: The articles found within this reader have been edited to make them accessible to undergraduate students. Many readers have not been edited in this way, making them too rigorous for undergraduate students. Contains unique pedagogy: This reader, and the others in the series, has been standardized with unique pedagogy. Each reader includes the following features: preface, section openers, editor bio, article abstracts, topic guide and end-of-article discussion questions. Translates across the curriculum: This reader can be used in numerous courses across the sociology curriculum. Because the articles are notquantitative, and they have been edited, this reader can be used at various levels across the curriculum.

Intended Audience: Developed to be used in several courses taught in sociology, Contemporary Readings in Social Problems can be used in an introductory social problems course as well as a theory or special topics course. It can also be used in an introduction to sociology course where social problems are stressed as well as in a global issues course.
